I think you should start with the Beginners section in [the book list](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/388242/the-definitive-c-book-guide-and-list). – molbdnilo Dec 17 '19 at 12:33

When the process terminates, the kernel releases the resources owned by it. If you want to keep data/information obtained during the runtime of the process, you can use a database or the file system.

if you want to keep data after your process terminates, try storing it in a file. check this for more: file handling in C++
